Generals take care of their children: The master mother leads the system to farm

The two of them strolled around the house. There were some empty rooms, but the furniture also took up space.

When he returned to the front yard, he took a look around the back houses and decided to store the wheat seeds in the back houses and the utility room.

I stockpiled 1000 acres of ordinary wheat seeds and spent 1000 contribution points.

The relatively large halls in the front and back yards and the two corridors leading to the backyard were also filled with 800 acres of sweet potato vines, which also cost 800 contribution points.

Gu Jingyan stopped her from hoarding more goods, and Li Changle stopped.

Planting vines saves storage space and also saves a lot of time in raising sweet potato seedlings. Now that the rain stops today, we can plant them quickly in the hoed land.

The advantage of the system is that you don’t have to do the work too carefully.

She managed to stuff more than a thousand acres of grain seeds into one house.

With doubts in her heart, she called out the system, "Tong, I remember that I had to do the farming task by myself at the beginning?"

The system said in a somewhat arrogant tone, "Host, the scope of the mission map has been expanded, and the functions have been upgraded. As long as the seeds are produced by the system, no matter how many are produced, they will be counted as the host's. The system will not lose a single contribution point to the host."

Li Changle breathed a sigh of relief. This was more humane.

That's thousands of acres of land.

He also called Lin Hai, who was guarding the door of the house, in and gave him a lot of instructions.

Let Lin Hai find two reliable people to take over the arrangements for building houses outside the city, the whereabouts of the grain seeds, etc.

After all, Gu Jingyan wouldn't stay here for long.

"Make sure you find someone you can trust. This is also the performance of the city lord, right? It would be best if the city lord sent a few capable confidants to take over."

He took out a few silver bills from his purse and said, "You two don't have much money, right? Here are 20,000 taels. Use this to pay for the materials and labor needed to build a house outside the city."

Gu Jingyan asked Lin Hai to hand over most of the banknotes he had to her.

It hurts a bit right now.

She is the saint of giving away money.

Fortunately, the doubled contribution points she will receive in the future will comfort her to some extent, so she feels resigned just thinking about it.

The rain continued to fall until mid-afternoon before it stopped.

When Lin Hai led the people hired by the farming envoy to the house to get grain and seeds, Li Changle and Gu Jingyan were already on their way back to the inn.

On the street, people from the government held large gongs and banged them hard in the streets and alleys, making a "dong dong dong" sound.

"Work, work! Come out and work quickly!"

"If you don't have wheat seeds, line up at the city gate within an hour to get them!"

"The emperor has sent high-yield grain seeds to the north, so there is hope for food this winter!!"

Li Changle felt a little embarrassed when he heard this scene.

It really is--

Go out by walking, communicate by shouting.

The streets were full of people coming and going. Some were going to their fields, while others were heading to the city gate to inquire about the situation.

With the arrival of a rain, people also became busy.

When they returned to the inn, Lin Hai had not come back yet, so Gu Jingyan did not leave.

Li Changle changed into clean clothes and chatted with Gu Jingyan about the conditions in various counties of Beiding Prefecture.

Gu Jingyan noticed something was wrong and asked her, "Why are you suddenly asking about Bei Ding's situation?"

Li Changle rolled his eyes, thinking that there was nothing wrong with this matter, "The next place where the fairy will spread the gospel is Beiding Prefecture.

I'm just asking around first and getting first-hand information from you so I can have a better idea of ​​what's going on."

Gu Jingyan pursed his lips, lowered his eyes, and stroked her fingertips, "... Yeah."

Afterwards, he discussed the issue of Beiding’s people’s livelihood in detail with Li Changle.

"…It will get better slowly."

"It is not necessary to be perfect in everything. Even the government cannot meet the needs of the people in every detail. The people also have their own set of rules for survival."

"Changle must put his own safety first."

Seeing that this person was beginning to worry about gains and losses again, Li Changle smiled and said, "I always feel that since I have the fate to come to the Great Yan Dynasty, God will not let me die young for no reason."

"May I achieve success, have many children and grandchildren, and die of old age."

Gu Jingyan burst out laughing after hearing this.

He is not as open-minded as a woman.

Li Changle held up the man's face and said, "You need to smile more. You know how beautiful you look when you smile, right?

"Father looks so gentle, and Ma said that mother is also a gentle lady from a rich family. How could they give birth to someone like you... such a big icehouse? You are so serious all day long."

Gu Jingyan softened his tone: "...It's natural."

Li Changle sighed after hearing this, "Who is born with a cold face? I think you are used to staying in the military camp and being a general for a long time. Your whole person is as cold and hard as that armor!"

But she also knew that he was the young general of the Gu family, with a profound family background in military studies. He had been fighting in military camps and battlefields since he was a child, and had brushed shoulders with death countless times in the face of swords and spears.

He has to uphold the glory of the Gu family, so he will never have an easy life.

Li Changle snuggled into the man's arms and sighed, "But my husband is good-looking. Even if he has facial paralysis, he is still handsome."

Gu Jingyan hugged the person in his arms tightly and snorted: "Then I should be thankful that I have a good face."

The woman laughed out loud.

That night, many civilians and soldiers in and around Bac Ninh City lit torches and worked all night long, and both the military and civilians were busy together.

Lin Hai returned to the inn and told Li Changle that he had arranged for the homeless children in the city to live in the houses that had been emptied of their grain.

There were three courtyards, housing a total of fifty or sixty half-grown children.

When the house outside the city is built and the children move out, the house will be vacated.

The craftsman to build the house was found and work started two days later.

The farm tools were also borrowed and sent to the wasteland by the farming envoy. Now the land is being cultivated and sown.

"The grain seeds are kept by the government. I have told Lord Guan that the refugees who are reclaiming wasteland outside the city will be given grain seeds based on their number of people. Each person must get at least one acre of wheat seeds and one acre of sweet potato vines. The rest will be in the care of Lord Guan. You can arrange it yourself."

Li Changle listened carefully, and when he finished, he praised him as usual, "I always trust you to do things."

"With the harvest from these two acres of land, we can get through this winter."

From now until the end of the year when people go into hibernation, they can still harvest two crops, which means that each person can store four acres of grain in the warehouse.

Even if the next rain does not come in time, the crops produced by the system do not require too much water. It should not be too difficult to carry some water from a distant place and wet the fields.

Thinking of this, I feel much better.

Gou'er and his sister will be able to harvest a total of eight acres of grain this year. In addition to food, they can also save some money to exchange for cotton-padded jackets and fish and meat.

Ever since I became a stepmother, I can't bear to see any children suffer.

I hope her kind gesture can give the children hope for survival.

At night, Li Changle rested her head on Gu Jingyan's arm, tossing and turning, but couldn't fall asleep.

Gu Jingyan pressed her little head to his chest, "You miss Yu'er and Shixi, right?"

"Well, since I came to the Great Yan Dynasty, I haven't been separated from my two children for such a long time. I miss them so much. I don't know how Yu'er will punish me when I return."

Gu Jingyan thought of his own daughter's nature of always asking her mother for help, and the corners of his mouth curved slightly.

"Go to sleep. I'll take you to see the outside of the city tomorrow." This would prevent her from having wild thoughts and feeling anxious and sad in the inn.

The couple snuggled up to each other, but Beining Cheng stayed awake all night.

The official said that there will be another rain tomorrow.

After new grain seeds are sown, they need to be watered.

If we miss tomorrow’s rain, we’ll have to go down the mountain several miles away to fetch water for watering.

There are too many people and too little water, so whether you can get on the trip depends on luck.

A group of children who had shared steamed buns and porridge together last night gathered in a field outside the city, holding the farm tools sent by Guan Hu.

Digging, hoeing, and any tool that can shake the hard soil in the ground are used.

There were quite a few young men, but because Lin Hai had specifically pointed them out, Guan Hu sent a dozen more soldiers to help them open up the wasteland.

The soldiers all dressed up as refugees to avoid being asked by others about the government's special treatment for the children.

Gou'er was not hungry today and his hands were full of strength. He held up a rusty hoe and dug the ground hard.

It rained heavily during the day, and the ground was moist at this moment. The soil became loose as soon as I dug it with a hoe.

The faces of the children who were hoeing the fields together were all covered with mud, dust and traces of rain, and they looked extremely miserable.

But everyone's eyes were shining and filled with joy.

Gou'er's seven-year-old sister followed her brother. She picked up the scattered branches and weeds and put them aside, waiting to take them back to use as firewood when she returned.

Then he grabbed a handful of wheat seeds from the basket, scattered them on the loosened ground, and then lifted his feet to fill the soil back in.

The others also worked together with their younger brothers and sisters.

After a busy night, many people couldn't resist the sleepiness and slept on the weeds or stones in the field, spending the whole night in a mess.

At daybreak, before the rain stopped, everyone started to get busy again.

When Li Changle and Gu Jingyan rushed to the outskirts of the city again, the wasteland that was uninhabited yesterday was now crowded with people.

Every time I dug with a hoe, I brought out large chunks of wet soil, which shows how much rainfall there was yesterday.

Guan Hu was also patrolling the fields today, and ran into Gu Jingyan and the other man. He hurriedly saluted and said, "You two masters are here too."

Li Changle had accomplished a great deed that benefited both himself and others. At this moment, looking at this burly, dark-faced burly man, he also found his features somewhat more handsome.

"Master Guan has always worked hard to do practical things for the people in all weather conditions. He is truly a good and dedicated man."

Guan Hu did not dare to take credit for the work. "Your Excellency's words are too serious. This is my duty. I dare not take credit for it. Your Majesty loves the people like his own children. You have traveled thousands of miles, and it is hard work."

After the business exchanging of praise came to an end, Guan Hu said goodbye and was busy checking the progress of sowing.

I don't know when the rain started to fall today.

Everyone was working while waiting.

Li Changle was feeling the cool breeze after the rain, and the veil in front of him was swaying.

She lowered her head and hooked Gu Jingyan's finger, shaking it, "I will leave for Li County tomorrow, Gu Jingyan, you have to wait for me for two months!"

"Ok, I will wait for you."

-

Li County, Leshan Zhuangzi.

In recent days, Gu Chongguang has been having a bleak life.

"Grandfather, when will my mother come back?"

"Mom doesn't want the fish anymore? Where did she go?"

"Grandfather, please take me to find my mother..."

"I want my mother, woo woo..."

Gu Chongguang was really overwhelmed and felt sorry for his granddaughter.

Early in the morning, after seeing off the carriage that was carrying Li Shixi to school, before he could even wash up, his annoying granddaughter came into the study in the front yard with her hair loose, looking for him.

Looking for a mother in various ways, asking for a mother in various ways.

She was so angry and anxious that she accidentally pulled out a few of his beautiful whiskers, causing him to lose control of his manners and grimace in pain.

He took the comb handed to him by Ma and combed Yuer's hair.

"Your mother will be back soon. Yu'er, be good and don't make trouble today. Grandfather will take you to the mountains to paint flowers?"

In order to take good care of the two kids, he hasn't been to Xiaoleshan for several days, and also declined all visitors who came to Qingxianju.

Yu'er made a little fuss for a while, and then stretched out his hands to Ma, asking her to wash him.

After hearing what Gu Chongguang said, he lowered his head and pouted unhappily, "No! Grandfather is lying!"

She says every day that her mother will be back soon, but many days have passed and there is still no sign of her mother.

Gu Chongguang: "..."

The child can no longer be comforted.

The fish hummed again: "There is only one good mother in the world, and a child without a mother is like a weed..."

The man holding the comb: " ..."

Gu Chongguang didn't know whether to laugh or cry, "If you don't cry and make a fuss, Li Yiyang will come to our house with your brother later."

The little girl turned her head suddenly, and Gu Zhongguang loosened his grip on the comb. "Don't move, or your hair will be torn off."

The little girl's eyes were filled with tears, "I want Brother Yi Yang, and I want Mom too..."

Gu Chongguang pinched the bridge of his nose.

When will my daughter-in-law come back?

-

The construction of the ecological farm has come to an end, and the remaining cleaning work is being done by Sun Daxing and the people in the farm.

The remaining houses on Xiaole Mountain were to be reserved for Li Changle to decorate, so Sun Daxing did not dare to move them casually.

There was also a garden full of colorful flowers, so beautiful that it was breathtaking. Sun Daxing was afraid that the people in the farm would be careless and destroy any of them or touch any pot of flowers, and Gu Chongguang would fight him to the death.

So he simply took people to clean up the shops and yards at the foot of the mountain.

The mistress is not here, but the work cannot stop.

Hu Chunshan and Wang Dahu are looking after the affairs of Lushui Village.

The Wang family follows up on the supply of marinade for Wanjia Restaurant.

Liu Tiechui and his wife were responsible for taking care of the food, clothing, housing and transportation of the masters in the house.

Except that the manor has not yet opened for business, everything is gradually getting into a stable state.

The only exception was Li Huaitong, the magistrate of Li County.

Li Huaitong has a lot of white hair recently.

First, Li Changle disappeared out of nowhere in the area under his jurisdiction.

This incident was exactly the same as when the prince was staying in Li County. He was so scared that he couldn't sleep day and night, fearing that something unexpected would happen to him and his head would be chopped off.

Who is that?

She was the wife of the general who conquered the enemy in the Great Yan Dynasty, the daughter-in-law of the famous scholar Qingxian Jushi, and the granddaughter-in-law of the Grand Tutor Sun in Kyoto.

He is the newly appointed Minister of Agriculture, who has just been announced to the world by the Emperor!

Even though his son Li Yiyang brought back the news two days ago, Gu Jingyan sent a pigeon saying that the person had been found and was unharmed.

But he was still a little worried.

Is it true that Madam Li will just stay with the general and not return to Li County?

Oh, he was even pointing at the high-quality grain seeds in her hand.

It only takes two months to ripen.

Thinking of the even worse-hit Bac Dinh Prefecture, he felt both sentimental and worried.

I hope Lady Li will leave some for Li County...
